Vampire Lord?

Post » Tue Apr 02, 2013 8:24 am

We all have seen the vampire lord transformation and it's pretty sick, my only issue with it is the wings. Why bother giving me wings if they don't work, I'm not trying to fly like a dragon but t would be nice if they were useful. I mean like hovering a few feet higher off the ground, gliding, slowly descending from high points to the ground, or using them to kind of jump up high. Just a thought.




Now I know I titled this vampire lord, but I want it to imply to werewolves as well, no need to be a biased a hole. Okay we get poison and disease immunity cool, vampires get drain life (I have no clue wth werewolves get in human form) and it stops there wth Bethesda all the way up until oblivion being a creature of the night have you more than just immunity and a spell you could jump higher, you were more agile and could run faster, you were literally stronger because of it, you had a resistance to magic and weapons, where are all those cool bonuses for human form now? At least give me the ability to move super freaking fast besides slow time.




Moving on to followers, keeps, etc. werewolves don't have this issue because of the companions, but how come once you defeat harkon as a vampire people in the keep still talk to you like you're nobody? I thought we became lord of the castle after that since all of Harmon's things belong to us, we ordered the courtyard restored ( key word ordered) and nothing counts as stealing anymore we pretty much take whatever the f*** we want? Not to mention no actual followers for the vampire side, if you aren't gonna give is that at least allow us to turn a non essential into a vampire, and to keep it from being op I even suggest making it so we can only infect one person at a time and cannot do so again until our follower is either killed or cured.




Last one :) you've made it this far. The random encounters with other werewolves and vampires ( told you I'm not a biased d**k :) at this point it's obvious to other npcs who carry the same infection as you that you are the same a they, why do they attack us. For instance we all know about the woman in mortal who is a vampire and through her dialogue she will hint you that she knows you are one as well, so why instead of being friendly towards another vampire/werewolf we still get attacked, I mean once you're infected isn't your character coding ( faction) suppose to change? These are just some opinions and things I saw as a not so major but not minor issues I thought I would share.

You made 2 of these threads. You should have the mods lock one.

No, you accidentally opened two of the exact same thread. If you go back into the General Discussion, you should see it.

I would link it, but I don't really know how to.

Just go to your other thread, and you should see a report button. Click that, and tell them that you accidentally opened two of the same thread, and you want them to lock that one. I think that's how it goes.

I agree with a lot of what you are saying.

In morrowind and oblivion being a vampire was really like....you were a vampire. I remember one time getting infected with vampirism but refusing to drink blood (yeah that was a real fun day), and trying to sprint across the bridge to the capital while burning up in the sun....

I think that vampirism should really be a very sharp, very brutal, double edged sword. You are faster, stronger, breath under water, can jump very high, carry more, immune to disease and very resistant to many types of magic, and perhaps you can enhance you could have the ability to enthrall NPC's, by seducing them and brainwashing them (like a horrible parasite), but..... daylight kicks your ass, fire really hurts you, holy fire kicks your ass, silver really hurts you and entering temples of the nine divines, or being near their shrines, reduce your stats (perhaps an inverse of the blessings?). You also need to drink blood to maintain your powers, and you need to drink extra to maintain your "normal" appearance, meaning that you can, if you want to, have full power but still look like a vampire, or you can simply drink extra blood to maintain your looks. But if you drink too much blood, people in town start to get sick, perhaps needing to stay in bed for longer before performing their activity cycle which puts guards on higher alert, maybe resulting in dawnguard starting to patrol the town too.

So in effect, you are a very powerful creature, however, if you don't plan your nights carefully, you are in trouble, fire is a real problem, daylight oh boy... a visit to the local shrine, haha, no, you need to drink lots of blood in order to keep up appearances, and if you see the dawnguard then it's a real fight or flight situation.

I find the subject quite interesting because I actually dislike vampires, from an RPG perspective that is.

I find the dawnguard a little difficult at times all there weapons have a bonus against us and their armor is defensive against us, i agree with you more than you do me lol. It's quite funny how Mara hate he undead but yet I'm her champion, wear her amulet and enter her temple whenever I feel like it
